Our models come with fully configured PrusaSlicer print files (walls, layers, layer heights, etc.) for every part. You just need to select your own 3D printer and filament and slice and print them!
OR
You can use other slicers ( .STL files included), but you must set the print settings yourself by referencing ours in PrusaSlicer. Most parts simply print in vase mode. Some parts require bottom layers or different layer heights.
First LW-PLa print
Before printing with LW-PLA, it is recommended to run a test print. Make sure the wall thickness is between 0.55 – 0.65 mm and bridging works.
After printing, measure the wall thickness with a caliper. Wall thickness depends on both “nozzle temperature” and “extrusion multiplier”.
– If under-extruded (too thin): increase “nozzle temperature” first.
– If over-extruded (too thick): decrease the extrusion multiplier (flow rate).
Also monitor bridging performance closely, because too high temperature can worsen bridging.
– If bridging fails, lower the temperature and may increase the extrusion multiplier (flow rate) slightly to compensate, only if necessary or you can play with “Bridge Flow Ratio”.
